THERE'S no danger of Hartlepool United under-estimating Tamworth at Victoria Park tomorrow.

The Conference side may be at the foot of the table and finding goals hard to come by this season.

But they won 2-1 at Bournemouth in the last round to earn a place in round two and Pool have twice watched the side managed by Mark Cooper, the midfielder who spent a season at Pool in the mid-90s.

Pool have won five of their last seven games, including victory at Bradford last Saturday and Chris Llewellyn, who will again partner Dean McDonald up front tomorrow, admitted: "After that result we can go into the Tamworth game with confidence - but we won't take them lightly.

"We had a difficult game against Dagenham and Redbridge in the last round and it is important that we treat the match as same as a league game.

"This will be their cup final with the chance of a place in the third round and a possible big draw so they will be running that extra ten yards.

"We just need to be professional and hopefully go on and win the game.''

Tamworth travel this morning and will train this afternoon.

Cooper admitted: "The game will be more Conference like in the way it will be played as Hartlepool are not a pretty team like Bournemouth were and they will not be scared to come at us or fire balls in the box.

"We had a plan against Bournemouth - letting them come at us then cancelling them out - but this will be very different.

"The main aim is to get to half time still be in the tie as we'll have given ourselves a good chance.

"Bournemouth were a good side, but they had one or two younger lads who we were maybe able to bully a little bit.

"I know what it's like up at Hartlepool and how volatile and passionate the crowd can be, so it is possibly a tougher challenge."
